GOD THE DEVIL AND BOB RULES!!! Sadly it was taken off the air. Personally I have trouble some times distinguishing between American Cartoons and anime (i.e. Teen Titans). Simpsons are cool, Family Guy rules, and I still like the old Hanna-Barbara cartoons, too.

Oh, Brian and Stewie are hilarious. But I cannot stand the Dad and Son (especially the Dad) so much, that I can't watch the show without cringing.

I find Peter to be the funniest character on the show, if nothing else because A) he's Catholic, like me, and so irreverant about it, and B) he's from New England, and has the most stereotypical NE-Irish mix I've ever seen. Some of the lines he delivers have me on the floor laughing :)

BTW (slight off-topic), anyone catch X-Men: EVO yesterday (Saturday)? Damn good episode :)

That was a great X-Men: Evolution episode yesterday, but I fear it may have been the last episode. The way it ended sure implied that. Oh well, at least it had a good run.

What about yesterday's Justice League? I was so glad they finally mentioned Kyle Rayner, now maybe he'll actually appear sometime.

Oh man, 80's and early 90's I was a cartoon junky. Can't remember half the stuff I watched, but it was alot. even made schedules for when things were on.

I now watch the old Batman the animated series...the actual good series of it.
Tiny Toon Adventures, Futurama, Simpsons. I wish the Beetlejuice cartoon would comeback. I loved Gargolyes and Finstone Kids.

Really wish they would start putting more cartoon series on dvd by season.

I wouldn't mind decent box sets of the Marvel cartoons instead of these semi-worth it 4 episode discs Buena Vista pumps out for movie tie-ins.

But I'd settle for a nice Iron Man DVD.

I like most everything that comes on Boomerang: Scooby-Doo and the ilk of mystery-solving-seventies-teens, like Goober and the Ghostchasers, Josie and the Pussycats, Speed Buggy; Loony Toons; Tom and Jerry, Snagglepuss, Dastardley and Muttley (I took a rubber Muttley with me everywhere between the ages of two and six) and the old superheroes like Birdman, Space Ghost and Johnny Quest. Actually I'm watching Casper on Boomerang right now!

I also like Sheep in the Big City- it used to come on before Sailor Moon, so I'd watch that too.

Great Guardians!!!! I haven't seen those shows in ages!!! I even had the characters from "Dastardley and Muttley in their Flying Machines" go up against the Green Lantern I created for "Emerald Sunrise"!! (The GL laid the smackdown on the Vulture Squadron rather easily!! :wink: ) Also some of the old Filmations versions of various DC Comics heroes.
"Oh yeah. Someone is definitely tired of breathing." ("The Main Man", Part 1)

I'm writing this Sailor Moon/Green Lantern crossover AU fic called "Emerald Sunrise". It's a hybrid of Action/Adventure, Sci-Fi, Romance, and Comedy. It's about Ami (Sailor Mercury) getting a new boyfriend who just happens to be a member of The Green Lantern Corps. I'm also throwing in some other characters from other animes and some old Hanna-Barbera cartoons from the late '60's early '70's. I'm also illustrating it as well. :oops: Wish me luck. I'm gonna need it.

The Powerpuff Girls (Junko Minzuno should team up with the creator and make a manga of them)
Time Squad
Teen Titans (cutest persudeo-Japanese anime evar!)
Classic Looney Tunes
Used to watch Family Guy (funny as hell!)

Is it just me, or is Justice League getting really good lately? Ever since the hour-long episodes started, they're just excellent.

The new Samurai Jack from last week was awesome too. I think there's another new one this week, and possibly a new episode of Teen Titans as well...

These are the cartoon series I watch:
The Care Bears
Strawberry Shortcake
Rainbow Brite
The Simpsons
Looney Tunes (not sure if that counts as a series)
Animaniacs
My Little Pony
The Powerpuff Girls*

The only ones I've watched on TV were Looney Tunes, The Simpsons, and Animaniacs; and The Simpsons is the ONLY thing I watch on TV now. All of the others are ones I found on video, mostly because they were taken off the air before I became interested in them. I have most of them on videos I own, but I have to look for The Care Bears and The Powerpuff Girls* in video rental stores.

I also like the English cartoon series "Danger Mouse."

*Does anyone know if The Powerpuff Girls is an American parody of magical girl anime, or is it anime? I'm not sure where it's produced, but I've never heard of it being a dub of a Japanese show, either. You can PM me about it so as to not get off topic.

My fav. Looney Tunes cartoon is the one where Bugs and Daffy are doing a dance routine, but Daffy is so desprate to be the star, he and Bugs keep one-upping each other until the 'explosive' finale!

I think the name of it is 'Show Biz Bunny'

Yeah, I've seen that one too!

I also like any one of the ones where Bugs decides to do a spur of the moment tap dance.

I've seen him do the aforementioned spur of the moment tap dance twice, in two different cartoons
